India vs. Sri Lanka: When, where, and how to watch the Asia Cup final live
India is set to take on Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup final on Sunday at the Colombo Stadium. India was the first to enter the final with a thumping 41-run win over a spirited Sri Lanka in a Super 4 match earlier this week. Hence, the loss to Bangladesh on Friday did not affect its chances as it already entered the final with four points and a much better run rate than other teams. Later, Sri Lanka also secured its berth in the Asia Cup final after snatching a two-wicket victory over Pakistan on Thursday. Meanwhile, India has called Washington Sundar as a cover for the injured Axar Patel for the Asia Cup final against Sri Lanka on Sunday. Axar sustained several injuries during India's six-run loss to Bangladesh in their last Super Four match on Friday. Sri Lanka off-spinner Maheesh Theekshana has also been ruled out of the Asia Cup final clash against India on Sunday due to a hamstring injury.

Dubai apartment prices jump most in a decade as home boom widens
Dubai apartment values surged by the most in nearly a decade in August, broadening a property rally that’s transformed the city into one of the world’s hottest housing markets. The city’s housing boom, so far largely driven by larger single-family homes, is now pushing up prices for apartments that make up about 85% of the housing supply in the Middle East’s business and tourism hub. Prices for apartments rose 20% on average in the year through August, marking the best performance since November 2014, according to real estate adviser CBRE Group Inc. The gains outpaced price increases of 17.3% for single family homes, known locally as villas, according to CBRE. Dubai’s real estate rebound comes after a seven year slump, fueled by an influx of newcomers — from crypto millionaires and bankers relocating from Asia to wealthy Russians seeking to shield assets. The government has also brought in a slew of reforms, relaxing visa laws and introducing visas for job seekers and freelancers. While prices for single-family homes soared from pandemic lows, the recovery for apartments had so far been slower. Average prices for apartments are still 9.6% below their peak in 2014, while those for larger houses are 8.7% higher, according to CBRE.

Proposed tax on international card purchases may drive sale of luxury brands in India
Liberalised Remittance Scheme, in case of amounts exceeding ₹7 lakh in a financial year from October 1, is likely to push the sale of luxury brands in India, experts said. Covid had helped boost demand for luxury brands in India as international travel restrictions shifted sales to domestic stores. That is now set to get another boost due to narrowing of the price gap between foreign and local markets after accounting for the 20% tax collected at source (TCS), mall owners said. «An Indian consumer earlier used to go abroad and shop in Dubai or London, but when the pandemic happened, many of those brands like Chanel or Hermes called their Indian consumers to do small events inside the store.
